Ball position improves your posture and give you a better golf swing.

Ball Position:

Placing the ball at different areas in your stance will change the trajectory of your shot. Let's understand and learn where to place the ball in relation to your feet with all clubs.

Let’s continue with this third element:

The Driver:

Position of the ball using a wood #1 (Driver) Slightly inside the left heel.

The 5 iron:

Position of the ball using a #5 iron About half way between your left heel and the middle of your stance.

The Pitching Wedge:

Position of the ball using a PW (Pitching wedge) Center of your stance.

These positions will help insure that you contact the ball at the proper point in your downswing.

Preferences:

There are no written laws that golf must be played with a particular technique. The player must learn to adopt what is best for them. Knowing that there is more then one way to swing a club allows the player to develop a swing that is best suited for him/her. Where to position the ball falls into this category. Ball placement is a preference and we can only give you suggestions on where to place it. Hitting balls with different ball positions in your stance will give you an idea on which position works best for you.

For full shots: This means when you're swinging the club to full capacity.
